Chapter 41 Tragic Battle Situation

With the death of the Light Priest, the church was once again filled with black mist.

But the Punishment Knights did not back down. Instead, their attacks became even crazier, and their fanaticism for faith gave them courage.

With a scream, a warrior attendant brought by the middle-aged scribe was stabbed to the ground, and was immediately stabbed to death by the swords of several knights who rushed up. Only the old butler and one other attendant were left, protected by the scribe's family of four as they retreated under the attack of the knight commander and three disciplinary knights.

On the other side, the bearded ranger and several of his companions were also in a bad situation.

Although the two light warriors were fourth-level war captains, the martial arts of the church warriors were solid and sharp. Under the combined attack of the two men, the bearded man roared again and again, but he was still unable to break through the two men's attack.

His three companions had to deal with the attacks of six disciplinary knights in turn, and they were even more unbearable. Two of them had already suffered a lot and were still struggling to hold on.

Suddenly, a bright warrior who was attacking the bearded ranger suddenly slowed down, and there was a gap in the connection between him and his companions.

The bearded ranger took this opportunity and struck the bright warrior in the face with his sword.

The sword had already reached the top of his head, and the warrior of light hurriedly raised his halberd to block.

The sword and halberd collided, and the bearded ranger clearly felt that the opponent's strength was insufficient. The halberd sank under the pressure, and the sword edge swept across the chest of the light warrior.

After a while, a disciplinary knight who was attacking the old housekeeper on the other side suddenly slowed down, and the sword he thrust out was weak. The old housekeeper grabbed his wrist, pushed it outwards, and broke his wrist.

The Light Warrior and the Punishment Knight were seriously injured one after another due to mistakes, and the battle gradually returned to balance.

But the strange thing has just begun. One after another, the Punishment Knight made fatal mistakes, and another person was killed and another injured in the blink of an eye.

When a sense of powerlessness suddenly emerged from the knight commander, he reacted instantly, "No, it's a debilitating spell!"

The second-level dark magic "Ball of Weakness" has almost no lethality and will only make people feel weak for a moment, and the higher the level of the warrior, the less affected it will be.

This is a seemingly useless and useless magic. If you are hit by the "Ball of Weakness" in normal times, people with slow reactions will pass without even feeling it. But in a battle with full fighting spirit, the slightest delay is fatal. !

Weird spells and powerful field control abilities, this is what is terrifying about dark mages, and it is also one of the reasons why the church has regarded them as a thorn in the flesh for thousands of years.

When the "Ball of Weakness" fell on him, the movement of fighting energy in the Knight Commander's body suddenly stagnated, and the movement of the long sword that was thrust out with all its strength was slowed down. It was knocked away by the old butler's pipe, and then was hit hard by a palm from the advancement. Hit the chest hard.

The Knight Commander staggered back a few steps and sat down on the ground.

A disciplinary knight stepped forward to intercept the old butler's pursuit of the night captain.

The old butler flipped the pipe in his hand, and the pipe head was facing the Punishment Knight's face. A huge fireball suddenly shot out and exploded in the Punishment Knight's face.

This weird pipe turned out to be a high-level enchanted weapon.

"Get everyone out!"

The knight commander took advantage of this opportunity and quickly stood up, but instead of joining the battle group again, he covered his chest with one hand and rushed towards the church door.

Although the Punishment Knights are full of courage, they are not stupid. They know that there is a dark magician taking action in secret, and this operation cannot be successful again.

The Knight Commander gave the order, and upon seeing this, the other disciplinary knights also tried to get rid of their opponents and withdraw.

"Don't let them escape. No one among us will survive if they escape!" The bearded ranger yelled anxiously.

These disciplinary knights in front of them are not scary. What is scary is the huge church power behind them. Once today's news is leaked, everyone will face the endless pursuit of the church.

Arthur, who killed the Reverend Ganging with a sword, did not take the opportunity to escape and blocked the door of the church.

Arthur swung the big sword in his hand and showed a sneer that a boy of this age should not have, "Since a tiger hurts someone, naturally you can't let the tiger go back to the mountain!"

"Get away!" The first one to rush over was the wounded knight captain, stabbing Arthur in the face with a sword. The fighting spirit overflowing from the sword was half a foot long.

There was no way Arthur could block the fifth-level war captain's sword. He jumped to the side without hesitation, dodging the sharp sword, but also letting the door open.

The knight commander didn't care about chasing Arthur and took advantage of this opportunity to jump directly out of the door.

As soon as the Knight Commander's feet landed on the ground, he felt that his feet were soft, and he immediately fell into the mire below his ankles, and was still sinking rapidly.

Earth magician! The Knight Commander's heart suddenly went cold. He didn't expect that there was an ambush outside the church.

There was a sound of wind behind his head, and Arthur's sword had slashed across from behind.

The knight commander could not turn around, so he had to twist his waist and slash back, blocking Arthur's charged attack with one sword.

Even with his feet stuck in the mud and unable to exert all his strength, Arthur could not easily break through the knight commander's defense.

The knight commander's eyes were filled with fire as he stared at the young man with an immature face in front of him.

Arthur smiled at the night captain, suddenly let go of the sword in his hand, and jumped forward at the same time.

The power on his sword suddenly disappeared, and the inertia caused the long sword in the knight's hand to continue to rise, knocking Arthur's sword away, but also completely revealing the empty door behind him.

It was at this moment that Arthur rushed behind the knight commander, and the hunting knife in his hand pierced the knight commander's right rib.

The knight commander grunted, and at the same time, he elbowed Arthur away.

Arthur was already prepared for this, and used his strength to fly back, and then returned to the door of the church again, and then watched indifferently as the knight captain fell slowly and painfully.

"Death Fight" is all about killing with one strike. The knife that Arthur stabbed under the right rib directly pierced the knight commander's liver, and he never had a chance to stand up.

Screams rang out one after another in the church. Without the fifth-level combat power of the night captain, the bearded ranger and his companions, with the assistance of the dark mage, slaughtered the disciplinary knight.

Occasionally, those who rushed to the door of the church would bump into Arthur, the little god of murder.

When there was no more movement, the black fog in the church began to slowly dissipate, gradually revealing a tragic scene.

The ground was covered with horrific corpses, and blood almost stained the entire ground red.

The only three people left standing in the church were the bearded ranger, the old butler and Arthur.

The bearded ranger had two eye-catching wounds on his chest, and his entire chest was stained with blood, but he still managed to maintain a tall and straight posture while holding his sword. The two companions behind him were sitting on the ground bandaging each other's wounds. The other companion was lying on his back, completely lifeless. The fatal injury was the halberd stuck in his abdomen. In the end, he did not escape the last blow from the Light Warrior before his death.

The old butler still held the long pipe tightly in his hand, but his other arm hung down weakly, and blood was still dripping. Not far behind him was a family of middle-aged scribes squatting in a corner of the church. The man stood in front, and the woman held the two children tightly in her arms. Next to them was the warrior attendant hugging the disciplinary knight. Both of their weapons were in each other's bodies, and they did not let go until death.

On the contrary, Arthur was in the best condition among the three. Except for a trace of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth, he had no external injuries at all.

The bearded ranger and the old housekeeper were looking at Arthur with surprise and curiosity. No one expected that this little mercenary would be the key to the battle today.

"Come out!" The bearded ranger suddenly turned his head and shouted at the demon statue.
